A ceiling fan can rotate 150.5 times per minute. The fan rotated a total of 2,426.06 times. Which of the following is true?
A.The fan rotated for 15.12 minutes.
B.The fan rotated for 16.12 minutes.
C.The fan rotated for 17.12 minutes.
D.The fan rotated for 18.12 minutes.

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

Here no. of times rotated /time in any unit = rate

150.5 = 2426.06/x

x = 2426.06/150.5 = 16.12 min

Choice B

The fan rotated for 16.12 minutes by dividing the total number of rotations (2,426.06) by the rotation rate (150.5 rotations per minute). Therefore, the correct answer is option B.

To determine how long the fan rotated, we need to use the given rotation rate and the total number of rotations. We know the fan can rotate 150.5 times per minute and it has rotated a total of 2,426.06 times. To find the time (in minutes) the fan has rotated, we will divide the total number of rotations by the rotations per minute as follows:

  1. Calculate the total rotation time: 2,426.06 rotations / 150.5 rotations/minute = 16.12 minutes.
  2. Therefore, the correct answer is B. The fan rotated for 16.12 minutes.
